Hi, Due to a package review fault, another DUP package libgme got approved. I've retired it but I want you to add a virtual provides of libgme, as Debian started using this name since 2009. We shouldn't make our users more confused. Thanks.

Please reconsider. The request in this ticket makes no sense. If at all, there ought to be "Provides: libgme-devel = %{version}-%{release}" in the -devel package. Possibly an additional one using %_isa. Adding a non-versioned (!) "Provides: libgme" to a base library package doesn't add any benefit. Who will use it? We rely on automatic SONAME dependencies, and only under special circumstances we add explicit Requires on a package name and a specific version.

Who will use it? people coming from Debian (Ubuntu) searching what provides libgme? it is just a piece of information added, to me, it is rather "why not" than "why" - this report is a proof that someone had a problem without that information, so let's fix it, I can live with two additional lines within the spec ... > We rely on automatic SONAME dependencies, and only under special circumstances > we add explicit Requires on a package name and a specific version. see above, the point is not automatic dependency solving
Ah, okay. You only want to make it easier to find the package. One could not "BuildRequires: libgme-devel" currently, if the %_isa Provides is the only one. "yum search libgme" would find the package, if the %summary or %description contained "libgme".
